I'm not technically new, but I joined then disappeared for a long while, so...
So hi! I feel like I'm an entirely different photographer from when I first made my account here, not even a month after getting my first camera (Canon Rebel XS). That camera broke (not my fault!) and I replaced it and god have I learned so much in the mean time. Photography helped me through a really rough breakup (which was the reason I got into it in the first place) and it has definitely earned its place in my heart for many years to come. So hello all. My name is Grant, and I plan to be…See More

I second all posts. Tamron 28-75 is sharp, light and good optics. It is slow to focus and will sometimes mis-focus in very low light but it is worth every penny.

It's a good lens. I've done extensive comparisons between my Tamron 28-75 f/2.8 and my Canon L 24-70 f/2.8. The Tamron is just as sharp even wide open, it's actually 1/3rd stop faster, flares less, and it's lighter and smaller.…

I used the Tamron 28-75mm lens for a long time until I finally bought the Canon 24-70mm and though the Canon is superior, I cannot say its $800 better than the Tamron, though that is the price difference. The tamron did well in low light, had nice…

Thanks for the advice both of you.
I am also looking at the 17-50 lens, and keep bouncing back and forth between which one I really want. I can only afford one, if even that.
Right now I have a Tamron AF 28-80mm f/3.5-5.6 Aspherical Lens and a…

The Tamron 28-75mm is an excellent lens with one slight drawback... When used on a 1.6x crop camera the 28mm side is effectively a 44.8mm equivalent. That is certainly not wide enough to be used as a mid-range zoom unless you add a wide angle lens…
Testing a new lens
Following another discussion, I'm looking into getting a new lens. The one I'm looking at (Tamron AF 28-75mm f/2.8 SP XR ZL Di LD Aspherical (IF)) is being touted as ABSOLUTELY AMAZING except for the fact that a lot of them have front focusing issues (which I'm hearing Tamron will fix/replace the part for you).It begs the question though, what would be a good, reliable set of tests one could perform on a new lens to make sure that it's a keeper?See More

Yes, the more you stop down the greater the depth of field will be, as such. The downside is that beyond a certain point, diffraction will make overall sharpness go down. The result is that while the greater depth of field makes less and less of the…

I'm a poor college student who just picked up a camera for the first time in his life, so I can't even justify thinking about dropping $1500 on a lens right now. But the idea's up there. One day.
I like the kids' parties idea…

Yeah I've looked at them before. For just about as long as it took to read said price tag....
Grant Junno replied to Grant Junno's discussion 'Landscape photograpy (Canon Rebel XS 1000D)' in the group Canon User Group
The lens works at least decently for closeups, maybe I'll just keep it for that.
And again...total beginner. I thought higher stops were better for greater depth of field, so I just went all the way up. I'll check out those other lenses…
Frank J Zgonc replied to Grant Junno's discussion 'Landscape photograpy (Canon Rebel XS 1000D)' in the group Canon User Group
You are correct that the higher the f number the greater the depth of field. There appears to be some camera movement in that shows up in the treeline as well as some of the plant material. The better fix would be using higher iso to speed up…

So many things make me happy, hard to choose just two but I would have to say that traveling is a big one for me.
